Sand Creek, MI – The Michigan Department of Transportation says that the work being done on the Sand Creek Highway bridge is about two thirds of the way completed.

Crews are replacing the superstructure and patching the substructure, according to an online dashboard on the MDOT website. The project started August 1st, and was projected to take 90 days to complete.

This year’s bridge bundling pilot project, the first of its kind in Michigan, is repairing 19 bridges in serious or critical condition that are owned by local agencies.

MDOT expects bridge bundling, which covers several bridge locations under one contract, to streamline coordination and permitting, increase economies of scale, and improve bridge conditions on local routes around the state.
